Because we need to make sure that FreeBSD-based *production* servers can be paravirtualized on the xenserver hosts -- performance reasons. That said, I've tried installing FreeBSD 8 in HVM mode, seems to work okay -- might be suitable for the 1 or 2 servers that does not need highest performance. PS: I'm not really familiar with FreeBSD, though I am familiar with Linux. Some hand-holding will be appreciated :-) Rgds, -- Pandu E Poluan - IT Optimizer My website: http://pandu.poluan.info/
